Veteran Disabilities and Claims
If you are a veteran who served in the Army, Navy, Air Force or Marines, you may be eligible to receive tax-free compensation if you have a disability that resulted from, or which was made worse by, injuries or diseases associated with your active military service.
The process of applying for and receiving these veterans’ benefits can be a long, difficult battle, requiring extensive documentation, medical records, service records, hearings and appeals.

Claiming Disability Benefits
There is a wide range of disabilities that may qualify for veterans’ benefits, including:
-
PTSD. Veterans who have engaged in intense and prolonged combat are at risk of developing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD. This anxiety disorder is known by various names including shell shock and battle fatigue and is now recognized as a serious and debilitating condition. The veterans’ benefits lawyers at Jan Dils, Attorneys at Law, have helped our nation’s servicemen and women obtain disability benefits for PTSD and other disorders.
-
Traumatic Brain Injuries. Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) have emerged as a leading injury among service members who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Symptoms can be mild, moderate or severe, and in some cases TBI can lead to permanent disabilities. The TBI benefits attorneys at Jan Dils, Attorneys at Law, have helped TBI victims obtain monthly compensation for their injuries.
-
Toxic Exposure. The VA provides compensation payments to chronically disabled Gulf War veterans with undiagnosed illnesses that may have been caused by exposure to chemicals used during battle. Veterans of Vietnam may be also entitled to benefits related to exposure to Agent Orange or other herbicides. Jan Dils, Attorneys at Law, can help you obtain benefits for illnesses related to toxic exposure.
-
Fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is a common health condition characterized by flare-ups of fatigue, widespread pain, stiffness and persistent tenderness in multiple areas of the body. Studies show Gulf War veterans are diagnosed more frequently with fibromyalgia than the general population. The veterans’ benefits lawyers at Jan Dils, Attorneys at Law, have helped servicemen and women with this condition obtain disability benefits.
